I've been driving the Mazda3 1.5 for several years. This car is equipped with a 1.5L four-cylinder engine that delivers smooth power output. The acceleration in city driving is not abrupt, and the fuel consumption is generally around 5-6L per 100km, making it very economical. The four-cylinder design offers good balance, with minimal vibration at idle, making long drives less tiring. The engine has a simple structure, low maintenance costs, and easily accessible parts—changing an air filter or spark plugs is straightforward. Compared to three-cylinder engines, it's more reliable, rarely has issues, and noise control is decent. Combined with Mazda's SkyActiv technology, the overall efficiency is high, making it ideal for daily commuting. Personally, I find this version economical and practical, especially in traffic where the response is timely and never feels sluggish.
